When I turned 30, I decided to make a list of 30 things that I had not done that I wanted to try to accomplish in my 30th year. After all, life is short, and I want to go out knowing that I truly LIVED the life that I had. That year's amazing experiences, adventures, and fun times make me want to keep the list going. I've decided to use this blog space to document the adventures...and to update and add to the list each year. To see what I've accomplished, click on the archive links on the right to go to specific items from the list in order of the date they were accomplished. New, partially accomplished, or not started items can be found under "November 2011," since I have the year to work on them. Let me know what adventures you'd like to join me in! You can use the "comment" function to leave me notes. I hope I inspire you to create a list of your own...let me know and if you need someone to join you in your adventures. I'll probably be up for it!
My dad coordinated a family trip to BVI to sail on "Dream Boat," his 33' Beneteau which is used most of the year as a rental by the Moorings yacht chartering company.
The sailing crew (Dad, Jon, Aileen, & Mom), exploring the beach of Beef Island.
Mom and I explore the rock coves on Treasure Island.
I slept out under the stars on the deck of "Dream Boat" while sailing with my family in the British Virgin Islands. Besides, it was pretty close quarters inside the boat.
Unfortunately, the night I chose to sleep outside was the only night that we had a rain storm! I got 2 hours of sleep before getting soaked!
